First time I get Ubuntu to load up without having to change secure boot, UEFI but it doesn't detect my preinstalled Windows 8 on the hard drive. The option to install alongside Windows isn't available but cleaning the whole disk is always highlighted.

What is happening here is that UEFI and secureboot are new features for booting with windows 8, and Linux isn't smart enough to handle it yet. This guide tells you step by step how to do the manual pieces for now.
